‘A Quiet Place’ Meets ‘Arachnophobia’ in First Trailer for Terrifying New Survival Thriller
A first trailer has dropped for "Don't Move," a new creature-horror thriller being compared to "A Quiet Place" and "Arachnophobia." The film follows a group of stranded church members trapped in the Ozark wilderness by a giant prehistoric spider that hunts by detecting vibrations, meaning any noise or movement could give away their position. It arrives amid a broader 2026 resurgence of creature-feature horror, following releases such as "Iron Lung" and "Colony" and ahead of upcoming titles including "Godzilla Minus Zero" and "Hope."
The trailer, released the day before the article, introduces the film's main characters and hints at several tense set pieces. Its cast has drawn particular attention, led by Tom Cavanagh (best known as Dr Harrison Wells in "The Flash"), alongside Lyndsy Fonseca, rapper Russell "Russ" Vitale, Hunter King, Joseph Lee Anderson and Rob Riggle, plus some notable cameo appearances. The title should not be confused with Sam Raimi's unrelated 2024 thriller of the same name.

Explained simply
"Don't Move" is a new creature-horror thriller amid a broader resurgence in monster films in 2026. Other creature-feature films have already released this year, including "Iron Lung" and "Colony," with further titles such as "Godzilla Minus Zero" and "Hope" forthcoming.
The film follows a group of church members stranded in the Ozark wilderness who face a giant prehistoric spider. The spider hunts by detecting vibrations, meaning the survivors must avoid making any noise or sudden movements to remain hidden. The premise has drawn comparisons to "A Quiet Place," where sound reveals danger, and "Arachnophobia," the classic film about deadly giant spiders.
The cast features Tom Cavanagh, best known for his role as Dr Harrison Wells in "The Flash," alongside Lyndsy Fonseca, rapper Russell Vitale, Hunter King, Joseph Lee Anderson and Rob Riggle. The film also includes some notable cameo appearances.
